Abstract

Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (cHL) is morphologically characterized by a small number of tumour cells, Hodgkin and Reed–Sternberg (HRS) cells, surrounded by numerous tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL). The functional role of these TIL is still controversial. While generally considered to represent an anti‐tumour immune response, TIL in cHL might result from the profoundly deregulated immunity of cHL patients. Eighty‐seven cases of cHL were available to evaluate the prognostical significance of tumour‐infiltrating cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), T helper 1 (Th1) cells, T helper 2 (Th2) cells and regulatory T cells (Treg). We confirm that in cHL the microenvironment is dominated by Th2 cells and Treg and show that large numbers of Th2 cells are associated with significantly improved disease‐free survival (p = 0.021) and event‐free survival (p = 0.012). Furthermore, a high ratio of Treg over Th2 cells resulted in a significantly shortened disease‐free survival (p = 0.025). These observations suggest that Treg may exert inhibitory effects on anti‐tumour immune responses mediated through Th2 cells and that Th2 cells may be more important for effective anti‐tumour immunity than anticipated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
